Ruby Tuesday Closing 95 Restaurants Nationwide

In response to a poor fiscal fourth quarter, the Ruby Tuesday franchise will close the doors on approximately 95 underperforming restaurants, according to a press release on the company's website.

Ruby Tuesday announced almost 100 restaurants nationwide will shut its doors in September. According to the company's press release, the under-performing locations will stop operations by September. Ruby Tuesday counted 724 restaurants in its system as of the end of May, with a lot of them owned by the company.

The Maryville, Tenn. -based casual-dining operator had a total of 724 units at the end of the fourth quarter ended May 31.

Buettgen said the closures are part of a broader initiative to prop up profit and reignite sales.
